I just saw my all-time favorite band Emperor live at Wacken 2006. And I now see that theese almighty guys doesnt even have a thread here! Well here I am to worship the Emperor. Lets chat a little about Emperor.

What do you think about Emperor and why?
What is your fav. albums / songs / cover art
Is there any --> good <-- similar bands to any of Emperor's diffrent sounds.

You get the idea mates just get a discussion running of this awesome band.

And one more thing, no meaningless posts like "Emperor sucks" or "Emperor rocks". Please put a little more effort, its more fun to read for everyone.

/Cheers Basso

Yeah, it's exactly the same as mine only mine has a different ticket number, 200andsomething and with no surname because I got mine at the box office itself.

It's going to be a crushingly awesome gig.

mine is only seven after yours then
hahaha - i am looking forward to it so much
if my friend gets a ticket when he comes back from his holiday, which he should - i will have someone to go with
after the show we will just sort of have to hand around in the train station and wait until morning i guess. it will be a long wait, but we'll have a lot to talk about! haha

Well, mine's not exactly 200. I think yours might be a lower number than mine. I'll have to check and tell you lol.

are there any places around the Astoria or Kings Cross station that are open all the time?
well - the Kings Cross station will be surely. if nothing else i can just wait in there all night until morning
it would be weird waiting in there all that time. it would be quite fun. haha
it would have been good to see the houses of parliament and big ben and all the London things when i was there seeing as i havent been there before but i guess that will have to wait for another time

That is very difficult to make positive identification because there is no good pics about the band with corpsepaints on , they got rid of them too early damn them , we all would like to see Samoth,Faust,Mortiis and Ihsahn with decent corpsepaints on

Actually, doing more thinking, there's probably a club night going on at the Mean Fiddler afterwards (right under the Astoria). Apparently that Emperor gig finishes really early so there probably is a club night on if that's the case.

Yeah, it's relatively easy to meet bands outside the Astoria. I've done it before. Anyhow, I think the Mean Fiddler will probably have a club night then but I'm not 18 so I don't think I'd get in, bleh! But we'll figure something out.

I'm sorry to put a dampener on this all I really am, but isn't the Astoria strictly a 16+ venue?

Wow Ihsahn looks very... queer? In that first photo. I like Emperor quite a bit though, I'm a bit ashamed to say the first album I got was Prometheus, they have a more definitive sound to them than other bands though, so it's no wonder they did so well. I'll say one thing though, I'm not sure what I think about Ihsahns 80's hair metal "scream" that he some times does, he himself seems like an intrigueing guy aside that though, seems quite intelligent.

Daru Jericho: Yes!! we still have a month and a half until the show
i actually got a young persons reail card today so it will cost me a bit less getting there and back now which is good
it will still be somewhere around £60 though i would guess
oh well. i need to do something interesting in my life. haha

I booked my ticket on the phone and was told it was 14+ I hope the guy was telling the truth. I'll be so pissed off if I can't get it.

EDIT: I just saw this "London Astoria & Mean Fiddler - Strictly No Under 14's, Under 16's only admitted if accompanied by an adult18's and over only for club nights". So it looks like I'm going to have to find someone to go with. =/

Anyhow, I'm gonna get there really early and queue outside with my friends I think.

i will be setting off from Lincoln as early as i can - i would estimate i would be at London around 12:00 or sometime around then
if you are the only person there i will see you right away. haha.
i really dont mind waiting and standing half a day to get in and get to the front of an Emperor show. you will have to guide me to the stage. haha
ooooooo im so excited
